Flavour explosion

Fresh, healthy and super tasty bowls of goodness! The service is fast and the options are plentiful, all really fresh and flavoursome. The tahini sauce was a standout, as was the pickled red salad. It's the sort of food that makes your body thank you for the nutrients but doesn't make your taste buds feel like they missed out.

This is located in a kind of fancy food court situation, and if possible I'd recommend sitting under the skylight, which is the bottom of a water feature that seagulls play in. Very cute to watch them from below!

Delicious lasagne

The lasagne was surprisingly really good, cheesy and much gooier then it looks.
I chose 3 salads which were crunchy and fresh and came with a tahini based green goddess style dressing which was SO tasty.
The broccoli soup was nice and warming.
I left feeling nourished and satisfied.

Pros: Lasagne, Salads with delicious dressing

Shut 🙁

Sadly the opening hours on Happy Cow were not up to date and when we arrived they were already shut for the day (hours have now been updated).
However we did find some ready prepared IKU salads in Greens Supermarket, the Soba Noodle Cauliflower Salad and the Asian Noodle Cucumber Salad, they were fresh and included lots of veg.
**update** husband went back for lunch and he really enjoyed the bowl 💚

Quick Tasty Vegan Lunch

A clean stall in an office food court, there’s a good variety of healthy plant-based meals. I tried the Iku wrap which the helpful person behind the counter described as a salad in a wrap. Delicious and filling and cheap! Hint - if you show up close to closing you might get a bonus food item for free! I showed up at 2:45 and got a rice paper wrap which was tasty too!

Pros: Healthy, Quick , Friendly

Healthy vegan in the CBD

It's always great to support an all vegan establishment. This place is especially great because it serves nutritional and healthy food, curries, salads and such. Very filling, leaving you full and healthy.

Insane!!

Amazing lunch spot, so so many options, fresh food, friendly staff. Really reasonably priced. So much flavour packed into their salads. Loved it and sad I didn’t get to go again.

Great for a quick cheap tasty lunch!

I got the laksa, which is flavorful, a hefty serving and reasonably priced. As I was leaving, she gave me a free muffin too!

Good and central

The place looks like it's in the middle of a business area, many people take their lunch time there!
The food is yummy, prices are ok and the staff is friendly
I recommand if you're in the center!

Delicious healthy and vegan!

Loved this place so many options and the guy there let us try a few of the curries before we decided what we want. All the options were good and lots of salad options too.
Delicious, fast and healthy.

Great food

I had mushroom dahl, chick pea salad and quinoa kale salad. All were really delicious and fresh. Had a yummy rice ball too. The quality is incredible considering it's just really a small hole in the wall in an underground food hall in the centre of Sydney. The ladies who were serving were lovely and happy!

Pros: Freshness , Flavour , Friendliness

Healthy and nutritious options

Laksa, salad bowl, and wholewheat tart were all very delicious and left me feeling energized. The salad was super fresh & salad dressing/laksa/curries didn’t have any sugar added which is an achievement on its own 👏

Fantastic fresh quick lunch

We stopped in for lunch whilst travelling to our hotel. It took us longer to navigate into the food mall than it did to order and get our food! Lots of options available all gluten free also

Pros: Fast and affordable lunch, Great range of fresh options including cakes, Friendly staff

Delicious & quick

Set out as a stall in a busy food court, they focus on plant based macrobiotic food.

Always have a good range of savory and sweet dishes including baked goods like vegan friends, cake, pies, etc.

Pros: Convenient, Well priced, Reasonable portion size

Cons: Nowhere to sit, busy location, Food tends to sell out towards afternoon

Vegan food court offering 👌🏼

Was given 15 minutes for lunch (yeah - I know right!) so had to quickly find somewhere to grab some food and get back to the office. Switched on the app - BOOM! Mission accomplished. Found this little gem in a food court. Plenty on offer and everything looked great tbh. I opted for a wrap. Couldn’t tell you what was in it as I didn’t get a chance to ask - but it tasted great.
Not bad for a quick stop off when you’re in a hurry.

Pros: Completely vegan, Friendly staff, Delicious food

The location is about 50m too far south on the map

Food court food with disposable cutlery and bowls, unfortunately but the laksa w/ rice was delicious and rich in flavour, and only $8!

Pros: All vegan, Super ethical and thought-out...

Cons: ...except the spoons and bowls, which are plastic, It’s 14:51 and they only had a few bowls left

They have since gone to compostable bowls and cutlery it seems, which is pleasing. The food court also has a range of organic bins accessible which was great to see!

small meals, huge price tag

Overpriced for a food court meal. Small portion sizes don’t help. It tasted nice but nothing to write home about. Good if you’re desperate and forgot to pack ur lunch for work.

Pros: In a food court

Cons: expensive and not very filling. , gives people the wrong idea about veganism being e, small portions

Great

This iku shop isn't big but it has all the popular dishes.
The curry and the casserole are very good.
Serving size isn't big, so take that into account when ordering.
Service is good.

Pros: All vegan.

Good food

Another iku at a great spot. Since quality and food are always reliable at iku, I like coming here because there's usually no line here unlike the other places at the food court.

Delicious and healthy

Been here several times and it never disappoints. Great range of different salads, the currys are solid and the guilt-free deserts are pretty good too.

Pros: All vegan, Solid variety for take away, Salads + curry option is good value

Cons: Treats are expensive, Tofu patty is a bit oily

Not my kind of food

Everything is pre-made and cold. Not impressive.
